Every 4 years in August, I am glued to the tube. I love the Summer Olympics (and Winter too) and I love political conventions. I especially enjoy the convention coverage on PBS.
Yes, I'm a dork.
The Olympics represent the best in sportsmanship, global community, and genuine human kindness. I love it! I'm going to try my best to get to Vancouver in 2010 for the Winter Olympics.
Today is the first day of the Democratic National Convention. Four years ago, I watched the speech by Barack Obama and I started to believe in our government again. I'm excited for the week of great speeches and great stories.
Right now I'm watching Caroline Kennedy's introduction of the Ken Burns' tribute to Senator Ted Kennedy. More blogging later...

Although I didn't watch much of the Olympics this year I LOVE Olympics too. I'm determined to someday be in the host city even if I don't have tickets for any events. I'm also fascinated by conventions. I guess I'm a dork too.
